IMI Sensors Rolls Out New Accelerometer
08/04/2015 - IMI Sensors, manufacturer of industrial vibration monitoring instrumentation, has released a new model of an accelerometer, the company has announced.
Model 607M123/YYYCC, a high- frequency ICP® accelerometer with integral magnet and integral cable to be used in route-based measurements, the company announced.
In a statement, the company said the new model is configurable, providing for a choice of cable lengths and connector types. The model has a sensitivity of 100 mV/g, a ±50g peak measurement range and a frequency range (±3 dB) of 0.5 to 13,000 Hz. The accelerometer is housed in a welded-hermetic stainless steel housing with an integral over-braided polyurethane cable and integral flat rare-earth magnet.
According to the company, the model's key feature is the inclusion of both a configurable integral armored cable and integral flat rare-earth magnet, which allows for efficient connection or disconnection of the sensor. This mechanism is a time-saver relative to stud-mounting in route-based predictive maintenance, it said.
IMI Sensors, a division of PCB Piezotronics, manufactures industrial vibration monitoring instrumentation, such as accelerometers, vibration transmitters and switches. The sensors are designed to work in harsh environments, such as paper and steel mills, mines, gas turbines, water treatment facilities and power plants. Integrating with portable analyzers and PLC's, IMI instrumentation helps maintenance departments reduce downtime and protect critical machinery.
